# Astribot S1: Price, Availability & Status (2026)

The Astribot S1 is a Chinese research humanoid famous for manipulation demos. No verified price, deployment, or date. The honest, cap-flagged status.

## Price

_No verified price on record._

There is no verified consumer price for the Astribot S1 on record. DEPLOY does not propagate unverified or aggregator pricing; where a verified price is absent, the absence is recorded as the state.

## Availability

_Status: announced-no-date_

The S1 is not a consumer product. It has been demonstrated publicly, but there is no verified consumer purchase path or delivery date on record.

## Status

The Astribot S1, from China's Astribot (Shenzhen), drew wide attention for fluid bimanual manipulation demonstrations (folding clothes, pouring, handling objects). DEPLOY classifies its maturity as research and applies verified-vs-claimed discipline: the manipulation footage is demonstration material, frequently teleoperated or curated, not evidence of verified autonomous deployment. Western coverage often undercovers that distinction; DEPLOY records the demos as claims and the deployment and pricing as absent.
